The methods and patterns of how parents educated their children are: habituation, guidance, example, unity, communicativeness, affectionateness and gentle, consistency, commitment, togetherness and deliberation. Religious character, compassion, affection, responsible, respect and honor for teachers and parents, devoted to study, interactive and friendly, compact and helpful as well as deliberate are among the qualities fostered in students (children).
